Maybe you see that those who are good at math are silent and low-key, not as high-profile as those who are good at liberal arts, but they are too indifferent and don't care about ordinary people.

I am not good at math, but I feel that generally speaking, people who are good at math are not low in IQ. Of course, a high IQ is not necessarily good at math, and there are specialties in the technical field.

What is your definition of cleverness? Become a business tycoon, a literary god or a scientific research expert?

Ma Yun is not good at math and can become a business tycoon. He is very clever.

Qian Zhongshu was not good at math and became a literary god. He is very clever.

Qian Xuesen was good at mathematics and became an expert in scientific research. He is very clever.

Einstein was good at mathematics and became an expert in scientific research. He is very clever.

All of the above can be said to be intelligence, but their intelligence focuses are different.

I don't know what my opinion is when I write this. In a word, your sentence "Why are people who are not good at math smart" is nonsense.
